Emily Atack reunites with Celebrity Juice co-stars as fans beg for ITV show’s return
EMILY Atack’s racy new role on Rivals has millions tuning into the Disney channel and now the actress is giving us something else to talk about.
The 34-year-old enjoyed a reunion with her ITV 2 Celebrity Juice co-stars, show creator and host Leigh Francis and panellist, Laura Whitmore.
Presenter Laura uploaded a playful photo of the trio enjoying a rendez vous with the caption: “Little Sunday roast.”
Laura and Emily served as team captains on the final three series and specials of Celebrity Juice from 2020 until it was cancelled in 2022.
Comedian Leigh was the mastermind behind the show and had been at the helm since its inception in 2008.
Despite ending last year after 309 episodes, there has been a clamour from fans for the show to make a comeback.
Back in September, Leigh reminisced about the show’s journey by sharing an old social media post that marked the beginning of the show, as he said:
“Sent this to my mate 16 years ago, can’t believe @celebjuiceofficial is 16 years old. Thanks to everyone who watched and was a guest on it. Cheers for the memories.”
Following Leigh’s nostalgic post, a slew of fans rushed in calling for the show’s return.
One fan expressed their longing saying: “Please revive Celebrity Juice. It was the highlight of my week watching it.”
Others chimed in with sentiments like “Bring back the good old times”
But as the star of raunchy adaptation of Dame Jilly Cooper’s best-selling novel, Rivals, Emily Atack is likely to be flooded with offers.
In one episode, her character Sarah Stratton appears in the nude, as she strips off for a naked game of tennis with the gigalo Tory MP, Rupert Campbell-Black.
Rivals follows the lives of British elite in the 80s who are working in television over the course of eight episodes.
The cast includes other A-list actors such as David Tennant, Luke Pasqualino, Danny Dyer, Alex Hassell, Katherine Parkinson, Aidan Turner, Bella Maclean, Nafessa Williams and Victoria Smurfit.
